I have no doubt Roger Federer’s dad forgot to pack Roger Federer’s tennis racquet for Roger Federer’s tennis lessons at least once and Rafa Nadal’s dad did not pack the right post-tennis lesson snack for Rafa Nadal and Andy Murray’s dad got Andy Murray to Andy Murray’s tennis lesson one minute late and I have no doubt Roger Federer’s dad and Rafa Nadal’s dad and Andy Murray’s dad spent that entire tennis lesson writing terrible poems in their pocket notebook for Roger Federer and Rafa Nadal and Andy Murray to find one day when they were dead.
